She'll run in the low to mid 80's but will be a handful, she'll chine walk, and kind of flutter in the air

Stepped hull 29's with a 575 SCi ran 78 - 83 mph, so you should be in that range. My friend had a 91 27 Fever with a setup similar to US1's and his ran 81 on GPS without a lot of "excitement". My 96 stepped hull 27 Fever with a HP500 (slightly higher compression than stock ) ran 76 gps, but it was a real handful at about 75 and you really had to pay attention to what it was doing, up to the point where you had to back out of it. Would use the max speed recall on the gps to see how fast it actually went ... was too busy driving to try to watch the gps. Is your's stepped or staight hull? (I think 1995 was first production year for them, but it may have been 94. Another friend has a 98 27 Fever with a HP500 and B&M 250 on top with ~6-8 psi boost and his can get pretty violent at ~78 mph. He has enough power though, that he can fool with his tabs somewhat and get a couple more mph before it chine walks too bad.
